Wild Horses
Frontman and lead songwriter, Jed LaPlant comes from a family deeply tied into the MInnesota bluegrass community, where storytelling is central to a song. He draws on that background with lyrics that are personal and at times intimate. That intimacy translates to the audience in their live shows, balancing that deep connection with electrifying energy.
Out with their debut album, Runaway, the band has toured the Midwest, the South, and out to the West, gaining a loyal following in nearly every place they’ve played. Their live show is a foot stompin’ and hands wavin’ kind of time with a collective feeling of comradery among those present. For those who have seen them perform, there is intense excitement about what is to come for the Wild Horses.
In 2022, as they were fresh onto the scene of rural Minnesota, their first ticketed show sold out a 700-seat theater. Since then, they have shared the stage with bands like Wilco, Shovels & Rope, Langhorne Slim, Dead Man Winter (Dave Simonett), Charlie Parr, The Lowest Pair, Horseshoes and Handgrenades among many others.
The rootsy Americana rock band delivers music that has meaning, depth and ties to the human connection. Featuring band members from very different musical backgrounds, they have landed on a sound that incorporates heartbreaking vocals, standout harmonies between Jed and Ariana, driving beats and epic jams. Wild Horses taps into their rural American roots with music that sends reverbs down your spine.
At the core, Wild Horses are a band whose mission is to improve the human experience through a shared love of music.
Wild Horses are:
Jed LaPlant - vocals, guitar
Ariana LaPlant - vocals, keys, fiddle
Landon Pahl - bass, pedal steel, banjo

With Rev Ezra
Josh lives in Ithaca, NY, and he started the project "Rev Ezra." He had his first release as a solo artist back in 2022, but since early 2024 has been writing and collaborating with his friend and fiddler, Sam Schmidt.
They released the album Generations in 2024. The sound of this album is stripped back. All of the songs were recorded with one microphone in single takes at Electric Wilburland Studios. They used no click tracks, no pitch correction, and no overdubs. They wanted these songs to sound exactly as they would be playing them at an intimate venue, or in someone's home.
The lyrical themes are focused on growing as a person while helping and supporting others, knowing more about yourself by learning about your family and acknowledging your past, and the important relationships you develop as you move through life, to name a few. Rev Ezra’s goal as a songwriter has always been to tell honest, nuanced stories, and to put all the common yet hard-to-grasp emotions into words, with the hope that folks can relate.
